Whitey, Rachel,and Speck have all been ADOPTED!!

These three pups were found in horrible conditions in Mount Pleasant and they were only 6-8 weeks old. A good samaritan picked them up and took them straight to the vet and gave them a clean bill of health, they called around several local animal shelters and were directed to NOBBR. We wanted to give a big THANK YOU to everyone who was involved, especially those who gave them great homes!!

Our Bully Bunch Awaiting Homes

**DIEGO**

My name is Diego and I refused to spend turkey day in the shelter so here I am!! I am a super sweet boy with a non-stop wiggle butt. I enjoy the company of other dogs and children. I am on a special diet right now to gain some weight and it is yummy!! While I spend some time with my new foster parents they continue to teach me new tricks, I already know how to sit and lay down. Visit my petfinder page at http://www.petfinder.com/petnote/displaypet.cgi?petid=12489810



**LULU**

Lulu was found in the median of Highway 25 in Travelers Rest SC with a bag of food and a bowl of water. She appears to be young 1-1 1/2 years old. Lulu does great with others dogs and children but seems overly interested in cats. Lulu is a total sweetheart and is a petite girls only weighing 35 pounds. Visit Lulu's petfinder page at http://www.petfinder.com/petnote/displaypet.cgi?petid=12352745


**TIDO**
My name is Tido and I am a hunk of burning love!! For most of my life I was confined to a small space at the shelter so I am adjusting to my crate and learning some manners. I am extremely clumsy and so full of energy that I would not do well with small animals or children. The more room I have to play the better because I love to play fetch and Frisbee, my dream is to go to agility class to show my stuff off. Please visit my petfinder page at http://www.petfinder.com/petnote/displaypet.cgi?petid=12327117





To apply to adopt or foster any of these dogs please email NobleOnesBBR@yahoo.com

The Bully Bus Has Made Some Special Drop Offs

NOBBR has some wonderful updates!! We have had several adoptions that have been finalized and several new dogs looking for a home for the holiday!!
**MISSY**






NOBBR helped place Missy in her new home back in February and received an update on her from her new home!!
Missy is doing great! and has from day one. She recovered nicely from her heartworm treatments, and fit right in with our other canine companions (Mikey, 1-1/2 yr.-old AmStaff, Little Bit, 2-yr. old miniature Chihuahua, and Gryphon, 13-yr. old blind Lhasa). Missy is absolutely the most loving, obedient, deferential and humble friend in the pack. She and Mikey are running and tumbling friends, and Missy mothers Little Bit. She is still a big "licker" and greets any and all who come in the door with affection and "kisses". We love her, and wouldn't change a single thing about her. Attached a some pictures of Missy and her pack. Thanks so much for allowing us to adopt Missy - our home would not be complete without her! Rick and Janeen


Also Sadie, Skyla, Rachel, and Xena (re-named Jada) have all been adopted!!

Bubba and Speck have applications pending and are in the final stages!!


**Sadie and Rachel were adopted by their foster homes, which happens a lot in the rescue world. We are so happy that everyone has found great homes but we are now left with a shortage of foster homes!!

NOBBR is in dire need of foster homes for puppies and adults that we have waiting in several shelters in the state. Fostering for NOBBR is completely FREE!! We provide quality food/treats, toys, crates, bedding, collars/leashes, vet care, and monthly flea/heartworm preventative. Please email NobleOnesBBR@yahoo.com if you would like some more info or interested in fostering.
